Cleaning My Baking Cabinet

Somehow last Sunday after making two trips to the grocery store, several trips to and from the car (a la my personalized grocery getter) and 4 loads of laundry, I was inspired to clean out my baking cabinet (After reading Bree's post recently). I wasn't going to fight it! I was too embarrassed to take a before picture, but I promise- it REALLY needed it. I know that it still looks like a big mess, but its better than before! I really need to go to the container store and get a few of those lazy susans and big glass jars for my dry ingredients... soon!

If you remember, I mentioned my baking tool/ingredient hoarder tendencies here. Well, those tendencies were validated when I found multiple packages of the same things... Oops! :) Sometimes I can't remember if I have something or not when I'm at the store so I get it anyway....Hmmm That is so something my mother does! Aren't we cute?

After I took EVERYTHING out it looked like I was preparing to go into my nuclear shelter for 10 years.And the cabinet looked relieved. Not for long...

I began to feel the exhaustion kick in as I started the next step- so bear with me. I attempted to group my ingredients into categories. Halfway through I decided I didn't want to do it anymore...hence I failed at some, but oh well! I'm sure you know what I meant and appreciate my effort- right? Right. Thanks!
